Lovely morrrrrrrrning.....

9th July 2023 (Sunday)   07.15 .... Although overcast and damp just now, the sun

'Jo' on the fourth tee.

is beginning to burn off the cloud (we could have an interesting sky as the clouds break up) to leave us with the weather that is forecast for KY9 today;   ‘sunny with a gentle breeze’.   I’ll do any biking later in the afternoon; Sunday is going to be a quiet ‘rest day’.

19.45   It has been a bonnie summer’s day.... as was forecast ....so Jo and I went up to the seat at the seventeenth green to enjoy a pleasant half hour watching the golfers.   Some of the ‘Thistle’ members were the first to arrive at the 17th the green, including Jock (sometimes John) and Mike; Jock couldn’t hang around as he had to go back home to get Honor’s breakfast ready.   He missed his putt.    The course was looking ‘bright and beautiful’ with colourful golfers dotted all around.... even in the rough..


Back at Ivy we (Jo and me) had ‘morrrrrrning coffee’ while putting the world to rights.   Jo is off home tomorrow;  (‘home’ being the cosy Isle of Wight)... it has been good having her visit and I’m already looking forward to the next time.

I intended going out on the bike this evening but changed and will go out early in the morrrrrrning when the roads are quieter.    Ferry Road has been busy today;  not surprising considering the sunny and warm afternoon.... a perfect day for the beach;  and the golf course.

22.00   I see that tomorrow’s weather forecast for KY 9 has been updated; from ‘light rain showers and a gentle breeze’’ to ‘thundery showers and a gentle breeze’.   The morning is forecast to be bright and sunny (I’m going out on the bike early); with a chance thundery showers after midday.

I’ve enjoyed a visit from Jo today, did some more drawing.... and watched the Tour in the


afternoon:  now I am ready for bed and a bit o’ reading.   I’m planning on going out on the bike on a bright and sunny Monday morning.

6th October 2024 (Sunday)    "Happy Golden Wedding Anniversary"  to Brian and Moira". 09.00 .... All the Fife Weather cams are showing overcast skies.   The Anstruther cam looks the bleakest!..... the Lochgelly the least bleak.  The Easterly breeze has brought the weather in from the North Sea.... and  'sunny spells' are not mentioned in the weather forecast, but ... sometimes the sky looks promising!   It's a good day to be inside.  Luckily I, (and all the other guests), are celebrating Brian and Moira's Golden Wedding Anniversary in the Lindsay Room at Kinneuchar Castle. 10.30     It's still raining, but the sky looks promising now and again;  the sun might break though in the afternoon.  I had a walk round the patio in the light rain; very refreshing.    I'm having morrrrrrrrrrrning coffee before I start to get organised for Kinneuchar Castle. 20.30    We had a really pleasant family and friends gathering to celebrate Brian and Moira's Gol

16th August 2024 (Friday)  08.30 ...It's a lovely morning but a layer of thin cloud is taking the Jackie. edge off the temperature so we have a chilly start to the day;  hopefully the sun will burn off the cloud to give us a sunny and warm(er) day soon.    The Auchnagatt 'troops' are expected to arrive about 10.30:  and I am organised .... and looking forward to seeing Jackie, Hazel, Catriona and Iain in one photograph.... a rare occurrence nowadays!  20.30 .... I got the photograph that I wanted... all four (soon to be five) of the Lawrie Family of 'Backhill of Inkhorn' (Auchnagatt) in one place!   It has been a most enjoyable day.  We had lunch at the very popular Cupar Garden Centre Restaurant (it was busy) followed by a browse round the garden centre:  the 'troops' did proper browsing:  I had quick browse followed by a catnap in the car.   The middle of the afternoon is my siesta time; and especially so after a good lunch!   And it was a really good lun

18th April 2024 (Thursday)    08.00 .... The Fife Weather cams are all showing an overcast sky:  rain hasn't reached Fife so far, but is expected to arrive by mid morrrrrrrning...."light rain and a fresh Westerly breeze" being the forecast until later in the afternoon;  but we're going to end the day with a bonnie evening.  Hmmmmm .... I don't think I'll be painting any bits of the shed today; and that was my project to take my mind off the car.   Computer stuff it will have to be:  I'm actually in a writing mood so this might not be a wasted day. 09.00   Forget the heap oops... car (it's in the 'bad car' corner);  I'm excited because the workmen are here to begin work on the patio. They arrived a wee while ago;  unfortunately spits and spots o' rain arrived at the same time and, if  the rain is heavy and prolonged they won't be able to do much.   Showers are OK but not prolonged rain.  Must 'go' got to have another cuppa
